I started to jog to lose weight (5'9 290 pounds) a month

Rowing machine

Hadn't thought about that, though it seems too big to fit in my house

I haven't started going to the gym yet cause I'm an insecure bitch. Would it be weird to go there just for the rowing machine...?

Have you tried lifting weights?

lower temperature of home. your body spends more calories to stay warm and your heating bill is lower.
drink green tea or black coffee in morning, 8 cups of water daily.
the more water intake the more weight you lose.
do great xx

Exercise for weight loss is a meme unless you're already lean and looking to release fat from trouble areas with low/moderate-intensity steady state cardio.

You select a DIET to change your WEIGHT.
You select EXERCISE to change your FITNESS and BODY COMPOSITION.

But doesn't exercise (cardio mostly) burn calories...?

>>42737445
If you don't have your diet on lockdown you'll just eat back the calories from cardio without even realizing it.

Not him, but the amount of calories a fatty like you could burn doing exercise is a joke compared to the amount of calories your body requires to do its day to day functions. If you lift weights and build muscle, you will burn more calories naturally, but your top priority should be eating less calories than your body requires so it will burn your stored fat. Exercise is good, but for losing weight it's mostly how much you eat that determines how much you lose.

Oh, I'm already doing that. No soda, sweets, junk food or anything like that at all (been at it for more than a month, too), counting calories with MyFitnessPal (aiming for 1500ish calories per day) and drinking a shitton of water every day (I haven't been keeping exact track of it but it's at least 2 liters a day)

So I don't need to obsess about exercizing that much? Of course, when I look presentable and my feet are healed, I'll definitely head to the gym

Any kind of high impact exercise like jogging while obese is stupid. You're hurting yourself. Do cycling/rowing/elliptical until you've lost significant mass.

There's no reason for you to not get adjustable weight Dumbbells and start building strength in your arms, shoulders, back, and chest. They take up no room and you won't look like a weak pussy when you go to the gym. If you build muscle now, you will lose more weight.

That doesn't sound like a bad idea, though damn, some of those are kinda expensive (mostly because I live in the third world and most of that stuff is imported, so it adds a lot to the price)

Would something like this be good? I'ts pretty cheap and it goes up to 20 pounds

Will do
